What determines the size of a frictional force?
The size of the normal force and coefficient of friction determines the size of frictional force.
What determines the amount of sliding friction?
the ammount of force and the surface the object is sliding against
What property of an object determines the strength of the buoyant force acting on the object in a fluid?
The density of the object or the shape of the object (like a boat) determines the buoyant force.
What factors determines the strength of the frictional force between two surfaces?
how hard the surfaces push to gether the types of surfaces involved
What is one factor that determines the amount of friction between two bodies that are moving across one another?
The friction coefficient of the two 'bodies' determines the retarding friction force. Represented by μ sub f in physics books. Friction coefficients can be measured in a lab or, sometimes, be looked up in books for an approximation. The coefficient is specific to each case.
What determines the size of frictional force?
The size of the normal force and coefficient of friction determines the size of frictional force.
What determines the size of a frictional force?
The size of the normal force and coefficient of friction determines the size of frictional force.
What determines the the strength of a dipole-dipole force?
The more polar the molecule, the stronger the force.
Is rolling friction greater than sliding friction?
Typically not. However rolling friction is somewhat of a myth. Rolling friction is actually caused by static friction. There are really only two types of friction: Static and Kinetic. That's it! Rolling friction is caused by static friction and the coefficient of friction (which determines its strength) is dependent upon the two materials of interaction.
What force is used to slow down a bike?
strength New: The force of friction. When you apply the brakes, they grip the wheel, creating friction, which slows down the spinning.
What determines the amount of sliding friction?
the ammount of force and the surface the object is sliding against
What property of an object determines the strength of the buoyant force acting on the object in a fluid?
The density of the object or the shape of the object (like a boat) determines the buoyant force.
What determines the strength of the bouyant force?
Density and weight d = m/v
What determines the amount of friction?
The roughness of the two objects coming in contact determines the degree of friction.
What are the two factors that determine the strength of the force friction between two sliding object?
no
What are the two factors that affect the friction force between two surfaces?
The strength of the force of friction depends on the types of surfaces involved and on how hard the surfaces push together.
What factors determines the strength of the frictional force between two surfaces?
how hard the surfaces push to gether the types of surfaces involved
